  1. "Both Blame Cannabis for Their Actions" - being <deleted> is more likely the truth. The plod should have cut off an ear and made one eat it and maybe they would get a proper confession.
  2. The reason is to encourage others to do better. If you find a cop who is better even if only very slightly, they should be held up as a shining beacon for others to follow. If you lump them altogether, there is no desire or advantage in being better. Unfortunately most Thais can't understand this which is why they are so far behind.
  3. Lady Gaga found out why Thailand is not a good place to perform with the flag incident. Why risk that kind of bad publicity over a minor discretion?
  4. I have not seen anyone blame her for what happened but a few have commented on her poor decisions. The guide is totally to blame but she could have done things to help prevent him having the opportunity to carry out this attack. If I walked around downtown LA at night wearing gold chains, a Rolex and waving a wad of dollar notes while obviously drunk I would be increasing my chances of being mugged many times than if I was alert and blended in while walking there during the day. If I did get mugged it is entirely the mugger who is to blame but I made myself much more likely to be his victim. An example - I saw an episode of Travel sick where the guy was given fake clothes and video camera (it was a few years ago) then told to walk around Lima in Peru (I think it was) while undercover police watched. Within minutes he was mugged and stripped clean. The police, who knew this would happen, then rescued him unharmed. Obviously the muggers are to blame but he made decisions that made it inevitable to happen.
  5. We never welcomed these economic migrants, we had no choice. France does all it can to enable them to get here. My town is full of them and they need sending to Rwanda.
  6. You watch too much RT. The more intelligent/wealthy Russians are getting out while they can. Putin is going to have to enlist hundreds of thousands as canon fodder over the next few months. The sanctions are really starting to hurt the economy which will suffer for decades to come. Generally, the useful ones will settle in western countries, the decent ones left will go to ex soviet countries and the dregs will end up in Thailand.
  7. If we were proven to be causing far more speed related crashes than other nationalities, I would have no problem with that. If a certain group of people are causing excess problems, why shouldn't they be exposed and targeted? I am against targing people for no valid reason. In your example, one of the best ways to get English to stop speeding is to have English people recognise the problem and how it affects them. This would start them self policing by calling out those among us who were the problem. Peer pressure is very powerful. To bring your question back to you, if English drivers were caused far more crashes than other groups with all the extra expenses, injuries and other problems, would you want to target us in some way?
  8. Not unfortunate at all. This is one thing I like about Thailand. If a certain race causes problems they call them out. Here in the Uk we have to pussy foot around the question of race. This woke crap is fueling resentment and will only get worse. The number of economic migrants suddenly coming here causing problems is out of hand. If Arabs are a problem, target them. What is wrong with that?
  9. Why not inform us of his nationality? If it is not stated and sometimes, if it is stated, people will soon speculate someone's nationality. If a certn nationality gets mentioned it helps us understand those people better. I'm British and we get a lot of stick due to our antics. I don't have a problem with that at all, so why do others worry?
  10. My thoughts exactly. Why make more enemies before you are stronger than them?
